Explained Lyrics

Royksopp, a Norwegian electronic music duo in this song “Sordid Affair” describe a love relationship full of pretense. Royksopp talk about people who pretend to be in love yet they are actually in lust. Such people tend to forge feelings of being happy in their relationships, but yet in actual reality, they are not and are hanging on due to some hidden agenda, in most cases lust. They go ahead to break rules and do all the crazy things people in love, do but meanwhile they are not really in love.
